Ocular Ischemic Syndrome
Jun 27 2023 by Mauricio Bayram-Suverza, MD
Fundus photograph of a 72-year-old man referred to the retina department due to long-term, painless vision loss in his left eye. Following fluorescein angiography, prolonged arteriovenous transit time and hypoperfusion were detected. Consequently, the patient was advised to undergo cardiological evaluation.

Retinal Fold
Sep 26 2023 by Mauricio Bayram-Suverza, MD
A 38-year-old man underwent vitrectomy in the left eye due to a giant tear in the upper retina. SF6 gas was used as endotamponade. During the post-surgical check-up, it was identified that the patient developed a full-thickness retinal fold due to retinal slippage during fluid-air exchange. As the fold was away from the macular area, it was decided to observe the patient. Three weeks after the surgery, his best-corrected visual acuity was 20/30.

Chronic Regmatogenous Retinal Detachment
Mar 21 2024 by Mauricio Bayram-Suverza, MD
A 65-year-old man came to our department with a complaint of chronic visual loss in his right eye. He had undergone cataract surgery in the same eye at another facility 8 years ago. During the examination, it was observed that the patient had no light perception in the affected eye. Further, slit lamp examination revealed a chronic anteriorized retinal detachment.
